Fulham have denounced the racist abuse directed at Calvin Bassey following their Emirates FA Cup victory over Manchester United at Old Trafford on Sunday. After the match, Bassey faced racist and homophobic attacks on social media. “We strongly condemn this abhorrent behaviour which has no place in football or society. Such actions are entirely unacceptable, and we stand in full support of Calvin Bassey, who will continue to receive our full backing,” the London club wrote on their official website. “We will do everything in our power to work with the relevant authorities in identifying the perpetrators of these vile messages and taking the strongest form of action against them. “Fulham Football Club is committed to maintaining a firm stance against all forms of discrimination and remains dedicated to fostering an environment of respect and inclusion. Bassey netted the opening goal late in the first half. United's captain, Bruno Fernandes, leveled the score 19 minutes from time. With the match ending 1-1 after extra time, Fulham triumphed 4-3 in the penalty shootout.
